JAM LYNN'S KNIFE.
A Weapon that Cost the Lives OF
Five Men.


In the early days Of California when placer
mining was at its heights and Rowland Flat
was booming camp, the knife and pistol
were ever handy, either for cold blooded
murder or for protection as the case might
be. Living in Rowland Flat at this time wa
man named John O'Donnell, general,
known as hard man, and ever ready to use
knit. upon the least provocation. O'Don-
nell had some trouble with a man named
Alex Shields, between Rowland Flat and
Pine Grove, and in the alteration which
took place, drew his knife and killed Shields
This was man number one. The murde,
was regarded as cold blooded, and the min
ers determined that if O'Donnell was caught,
he should be tried for his crime by one OF
the most popular judges in the State, at tina,
time known as Judge Lynch. After per-
sistent search, the murderer was hanged
with the usual ceremonies attending Lynch
court. This is man number two. In some
manner a noted desperate we'll known in
Western Nevada as Jim Lynn, got possession
of the knife, and commenced wild and
reckless career that led him ultimately to
the hangman's moose. In short time after
becoming the possessor Of the fatal knife,
Lynn got into a quarrel with a man named
| John West, at Rowland Flat, and drawing
his murderous knife cut West badly, and left
him for dead on the sidewalk. West, how
ever, recovered and for some reason nothing
was done to Lynn. He led precarious
life around the Flat for several months, and
one day, just one year from the day he stabbed
West at Rowland Flat, the two men met al
place called Rabbit Creek where the old
trouble was renewed. Again Lynn drew
the historical knife and plunged it into West
this time with fatal effect. For this murder
Lynn was acquitted, but man number three
was sent to his long home. Sometime after
this, meeting with various ups and downs,
Lynn found himself in Dayton on the Car
son river. Here he had some difficulty with
John Doyle, and as usual reached for his
now notorious knife and killed Doyle, in
crossing the list Of d .ad to four He did no;
| fare SO we'll this time. He had reached In,
cod Of his rope, and was found dangling to
the end Of it dead man. A mob had
avenged the murder Of Jack Doyle. Lynn
made the fifth man who lost his life, either
directly or indirectly through the knife with
which O'Donnell murdered Shields at How
land Flat years before. What became Of the
murderous weapon after Lynn was hung i,
unknown.-Reno 9ournal

paper (secular) Of eight pages, and is in
tended for the family. 1t has a large variety
OF reading matter adapted to old and young.
